ZCCHC12

protein-coding

zinc finger CCHC-type containing 12, the group of Paraneoplastic Ma antigens|Zinc fingers CCHC-type

Gene summary

This gene encodes a downstream effector of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling. This protein contains a zinc finger domain and functions as a transcriptional coactivator. Variation in this gene may be associated with X-linked cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_173798.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Transcriptional coactivator in the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-signaling pathway. It positively modulates BMP signaling by interacting with SMAD1 and associating with CBP in the transcription complex. It contributes to the BMP-induced enhancement of cholinergic-neuron-specific gene expression (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.;
